- LP 1073: ʾṣbʿn for ʾṣmʿn and {ʾs¹}<>lm for ṯḥwm.
- Commentary
- Area A. One of the forks of the two ʾs is closed by carving a line between the branches of the fork thus forming a triangle. Despite this pecularity they are different from the ṣ which has a semi-circular (and not triangular) loop. It is possible that the ṯ of ṯḥwm is in fact an ʾ or even a ṣ with both loops closed but as the author has apparently tried to avoid confusion it is more likely to be a ṯ.
